THE OPPOSITION T0 HILL
I'hacher Believes It Will Die Away ag the
Days Pass—Differences .of Opinion Are
Natural —Vioe President Steven-
son Speaks In His Native State.
NEW YORk, Oct. il.—In regard to the
third state ticket ,put up by the Shepard
Democracy,-John' Boyd Thacher, at the
Democratic state headquarters this mom-
ing, made this official statement:
‘ “We have to deal with all sorts of men;
" with all sorts of societies and with all
sorts of theories in a political campaign.
Differences of opinion are natural both
'with regard to candidates and issues. I
'think, however, as the days go on that
these gentlemen who oppose Mr. Hill be-
cause he is Mr. Bill, will support him be-
EVERETT P. WHEELER.
Cause he is the leader of the. ticket chosen
by the reprosen tatives of the party. This
is a life and death struggle fer the Demo-
cratic party. If we lose this election, we
cannot hope to succeed in carrying the
legislature for 20 years to come.
“If there is no hope offcerrying the log-
islature, the party organization will go to
pieces. Mr. Hill is at, best only a passing
figure in politics. like "every other public
man. ,
“The party goes on forever. Candidates
come and go. The party is greater than
‘any' man. Besides opposition to Mr. Hill
now is like dissatisfaction on the part of
a few soldiers on the field of battle to their
general. . _
“They may notJLh‘ave wanted him as
leader, but the fact remains that he is the
regularly appointed ' leader. and the army
he is leading is facing the enemy in a
deadly struggle. I have a high regard for
Mr. Wheeler and his friends, but I have a
highfi regard. for .loyal Democrats who
would rather injure the common enemy”
than help destroy their own party. The
next two weekswill soft-on the feeling of
opposition and bring about a. better feel-
in .”
g \V‘he‘elcr For Governor.
The Shepard-ticket is as follows:
For governor. Everett P. Wheeler of
New York; ~I‘or'lieutcnant governor, Dan-
iel N. Lockwood of Erie; for associate
judge of thecourt of appeals, Charles F.
Brown of Orange.
Everett P. Wheeler, the candidate for
governor on the Democratic party reform
ticket, said today that his letter of accept-'
ance of the nomination would be ready
for the notification committee whenever
that committee arrived. Reports from the
Shepard headquarters in Brooklyn are to,

tallied. 'Republicans are pleased and the
straight out Democrats displeased by
Wheeler’s nomination. '
The nomination of the ticket, which is,
with the exception of governor, the same
as that named by the Saratoga convention,
is a direct attack on Hill. No conceal-
ment is made of that, and the same
paragraph in the platform which de-
nounces Hill praises Cleveland. It is an-
nounced that Charles S. Fairchild.~the
president of the State Democracy, will be
the chairman of the campaign committee
of the new body, which is called “Demo-
cratic Party Reform Organization.”
Everett P. Wheeler, who has been se-
lected as the candidate against Hill, is a
tariff reformer of this city. He says he
will be the candidate. He is apersonal
friend of Grover Clevleand.
The collapse of the deal between the
Grace Democrats and Tammany Hall, the
aim of which was to secure a local ticket
upon which both factions could unite, is
one of the surprising and unexpected de-
velopments of the State Democracy’s coun-
ty convention. The Grace Democrats
nominated W. L. Strong for mayor and
John W. Gofl? for recorder. The Repub-
lican county convention has already in-
dorsed Strong for mayOr and Goff for re-
corder.
Stevenson Speaks In Illinois.
LINCOLN, Oct. 1 .-—Vice President Ste-
' venson spoke here this afternoon. He said
the Democratic party had redeemed its
pledges to the people who intrusted it
svit-h power, and that against monopolies
fostered and strengthened by more than a
third of a century of Republican legisla-
tion long strides had been taken along
the line of true tariff reform
In the course of his speech he said:
‘ “You have heard much of the Sugar
trust and of the benefits it will derive
,under the new law. I am free to say that.
' ould my vote’ have controlled, it would
ave received none of the benefits against
which complaint has been made. I favored
the bill as it passed the Democratic house,
placing sugar of all grades upon the free
list. But, objectionable as some features
of the sugar schedule are, it must not be
forgotten that they are a great improve-
ment upon the McKinley law. How? The
Sugar trust sprang into existence under
the McKinley law—was, in fact, a neces-
airy outgrowth of that law. The McKin-
ley law admitted raw sugars free of duty.
This was in'the interest of the refiners—
Was
this in the interest of the people, of the
consumer? Not at all. It was solely in
the interest of the refiner, for the reason
that the ‘free sugar’ of which you have
heard so much was wholly unfit for do-
mestic use. It was the raw material that
passed into the hands of the refiners—of
the 'trust.’ It was not the sugar used
upon your tables. -
“The McKiney law levied a tax of one-
half cent a pound upon refined sugar, and
in addition to that it levied a tax of one-
tenth of a cent a pawn: upon sugars com-
ing from countries that paid a sugar
bounty. Thus you will see that the net
protection given tin trust by the McKin-
ley law was virtually six-tenths of a cent
a pound, and that, too, after giving free
raw sugar for consumption in its refiner-
ice.
“The McKinley low, with its duty of
six-tenths of a cent per pound on refined
sugar, protected the Sugm- trust more than
$75, 000.000 upon the vast importations of
raw sugar. The true test of the value of
the new law is by contrasting it with the
old.
“How. then, stands the account? The
new law takes from the trust two~flftbs~
almost one-half—tbe benefits it received
under the McKinley law. The new law
totally repeals the provision of the McKin-
ley law which gave to the sugar planter a
bounty of 2 cents per pound for 15 years
upon his product. The cost of this darling
feature of the McKinley law was $12,000,-
000 annually to the federal treasury and
the people. But this is not all. The sugar
schedule of the McKinley law was a
charge upon the treasury to the extent of
the bounty thus paid the planter. Under
the new law the bounty is abolished, and
by careful estimate of the secretary of the
treasury under the new schedule the reve-
nues ccminginto the treasury will fer the
current fiscal year amount to $43,000,-
000."

Simple Rites Over the Body of Oliver Wen-

BOSTON, Oct. 11.--A small gathering of
loving friends and a few words of impress-

companion and coworker marked the sim-
ple rites over the body of Dr. Oliver Wen-

There was a considerable representation of
the literary friends of the post, but partly
because of the inclement Weather, partly
because it was the express wish of the
family that the services should be as quiet
and simple as possible, the public remain-
ed away, and the historic old chapel was
only half filled.

body of the deceased poet flied into the

President “Units of the Bankers’ Associa-
tion Says Demagoguesv Take an Oppo-
site View—The End of the Long
Battle Over the Tarifi‘ Question.
' BALTIMORE, Oct. 11,—Tne twentieth
annual convention of the American Asso-
ciation of Bankers opened at Ford’s Opera
House at 10:80 o'clock: Every section of
the Union is represented. Addresses of
Welcome were made by Hon. John P. Poe
and Mr. Enoch Pratt, chairman of the
Baltimore clearin house. M. M. White,
president of the ankers’ association, re
sponded.
In his speech Mr. M. M. White,.presi-
dent of the American Bankers’ associa-
tion, said:- “On behalf of the bankers pres-
ent we most heartily respond to the ad-
dresses of welcome by his honor the
mayor, Attorney General Poo and Enoch
Pratt of this grand old city of Baltimore,
the metropolis of a state famed in the past
as an asylum for the persecuted of every
class and country who sought its unsec-
tarian domains.
“In calling your attention to the busi-
ness‘that may be presented {Or your con—
sideration at this convention I deem it
proper to refer to the fact that recently
the industries of this great commonwealth
have been greatly relieved by the settle-
ment of the tariff question after the pro-
longed and vexatious legislation with
which you all, are familiar.
“It is a potent fact that the banking
fraternity, coming in daily contact with
these whose interests and occupations were
most aflected. have wielded a benign in-
fluence, stimulating and encouraging all,
and that ere long the fires of the forge and
and resound through the land.
The Bankers and the People.
“As bankers we recognize the great re-
sponsibility resting upon us, and in dis-
charge cf the same a firm and steady char-
acter and the experience of years of train-
ing are required. Demagogues are con-
stantly teaching that in some way bank-
ers are opposed to the people and con—
trolled by a narrow, selfish policy. .No
class of people are more interested in the
material prosperity of the country. and
any action on their part opposed to this
only retards their own interests.
“The business of banking is honorable
when intelligently conducted,and a strong
power in the development of the resources
of the country, and is the outgrowth of
the highest civilization, and when better
known we need not apologize for our ex-
istence. Our business is lnseparably con-
nected with the condition of the world. at
large, and, in fact, with all that enters
into the status of the people. "

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-—Early in the morn-
ing a terrific Windstorm struck the me-
tropolis, causing death anddisaster in all
directions. Houses were wrecked and ves-
sels cast ashore. Many craft which wore
due at this and {neighboring ports are
missing, and someof them, it is feared, »
'were lost with all ,hands on board. The
most serious accident on land occurred at
3:50 o'clock, when the walls of a seven
story factory in course of, construction a!
74 Monroe street fell in. They crushed in
the roofs of two dwelling houses, killing
three of their inmates and seriously in-
juring others. .
The Names of the Dead.
The killed were: -
Mrs. Bertha Korones. 46 years old.
Abraham Korones, 9 years old.
, Meyer Stoneman, 30 years old.
, Abraham Abrahams. 9 years old.
The following were injured:
Annie Koroncs. 19 years old, injured in-
ternally and suffering from a fractured
leg. '
Carl Koroncs, nose broken and severely
bruised.
James Brady, 14 years old, arm broken
and body crushed.
Michael Korones, head cut open and
chest bruised“.
Jacob Korones, 26 years old, out and
bruised. ‘
Timothy Doclan, sprained back and
cut on the head.
Louis Abrahams, scalp wound and con-
tusions. -
Isaac Abrahams, out about the head.
Three persons—Minnie Abrahams, aged
15; Rose Abrahams, 18, and Jennie Stinv
man—are missing.~
There were nearly 20 persons in the
tenement house and ten in a rear exten-
sion to the house on the other side of the
collapsed building. Both were utterly
crushed, and by 8 o’clock three bodies had
been taken from the ruins, two of them
mutilated almost beyond recognition, and
at least 15 persons Were under treatment
for severe injuries remixed. , _ '_ ,. , _
It was just” before daylight 'thst an aw-
ful crash was heard from the east side 0!
Monroe street. The residents of the street
thought at first that the sound was a
thunderclap. When they looked out,
however. a tall factory building which
was going up at 74 for use as a tailor’s
sweatshop was not to be seen, and from a
huge pile of, debris, covering 100 square
feet of the ground in which it had stood,
rose a terrible wailing and groaning. A
thick cloud of dust r__cse through the rain
and half stifled Policemen Powers and
Curry, who were near the scene.
‘ As the dust cleared away a solitary
man, George Robinobitch, a photographer
who boarded in 72, crawled through the
debris. He turned .back and helped an-
other man, and his wife through the win-
dow of the wrecked house.
Ofiicer Curry ran to the nearest fire
alarm box and turned in a. call. Then be
secured a telephone and ordered out all
the ambulances available in the lower part
of the city. Half an hour later there were
three fire engine companies and three
hook and ladder companies endeavoring to
save the injured and secure the bodies oi
the dead. , “ '
The Schdolhouse a Morgue.
The schoolhouse next door to the wreck-
ed structures was temporarily turned into
a hospital. Under the unceasing exertions
of the firemen the injured slowly began to
stream in. In two hours three dead bodies
had been taken from the ruins and 18 in-
jured people were under treatment.
From the debris were heard shrieks of
the non, women and children imprisoned
there, but where they were and how many
of those buried within were alive could
only be guessed at. Three women were
known to be living. After tWo hours’
Work one of them, Annie Korones, was
rescued and carried into the schoolhouse,
where her rescued brothers and sisters
went wild with joy over her. They had
just Seen three corpses carried past- them
into the shelter of the schoolhouse build-
ing and had given up all hope of seeing
her again. ,.
In the front of _ the building a girl's
hand was uncovered after an hour's hard
labor. The firemen were able to reach her
and give her brandy, but it was an hour
and a half after that before they were able
to extricate her from the broken rafters
and beams that imprisoned her.
Louis and Carl Abrahams. who slept in
the rear attic of the tenement house, were
buried in the ruins and remained therefor
two hours before the firemen were able to
rescue them. Before that time the firemen
were able to give them whisky through a
narrow opening, but could not-take them
from the rubbish which pinned them
down. , , ,
